Some of our forumgoers are... a little off. (Don't worry, though, he doesn't bite.) (Louis Wu 22:42:50 UTC) (permalink)
Firefight Footage
If you're interested in watching shakeycam footage of the new Firefight, swing by YouTube - GatheringofGamers posted an 8-minute vid filmed from a theater showing. Fun stuff! Thanks, Lifejumper. (Louis Wu 20:31:36 UTC) (permalink)
Campaign Walkthrough from GT
More from GameTrailers - Lars runs through the campaign gameplay once again. Why should you watch it for the 80th time? Because there are always little tidbits that might be different from the last one you saw. (Nice hint about some space boarding action that might come later...) Good discussion in this one. Thanks, Sean P. (Louis Wu 19:17:40 UTC) (permalink)
Gamespot's on the floor

Firefight Walkthrough at GT
Lars talks to Gametrailers about Firefight: Part 1 | Part 2. Part 1 is the (now-familiar) customization stuff... Part 2 is a look at some of the newest goodies in Firefight, like the Drop Shield and Target Designator. Thanks, Sean P. (Louis Wu 18:34:42 UTC) (permalink)
Gamespot's Reach Stage Demo
Over at NeoGAF, Demoncarnotaur noticed a Gamespot Stage Demo of Halo Reach - Mike Zak and Lars Bakken take over the gameplay/discussion pairing. The Gamespot host was content to watch the play for much of the time, so you get a cleaner view of the demo than in previous releases, and a very nice view of the space combat. One new fact - Zak makes it clear that Sabre gameplay is a campaign-only experience (though this includes coop) - no multiplayer. There's also a very easy-to-read runthrough of the Firefight customization screens... awesome! Go watch. (Louis Wu 18:13:56 UTC) (permalink)
